Subtraction

(album: The Afterman: Ascension - 2012)

The hurt across your face, your word against mine,
The rhythm you repeat, the beat a hair behind,
Were you on my side?

You gave your all, but you gave it once, a lesson that you thought,
You could teach it when you want, subtract me from your heart,
Little take away girl.

One step at a time,
You made us angry,
All your love could hide,
But we knew you were afraid.

We accept, we unaccept, we made up, we're breaking up,
You've thought you had enough, but maybe you didn't know,
That this stage holds a show.

One step at a time,
You showed us angry,
All your love could hide,
But we knew you were afraid.

Misery, I digress,
No recourse, no remorse,
Let it be, I confess
To every song that brought you back.
Misery, I digress,
No recourse, no remorse,
Let it be, I confess
To every song that brought you back.
